Forza Horizon 5 has now raced past 34 million players

It seems to be growing with an average of almost a million users each month.
Jonas Mäki Editor Sweden 24 October 2023

Even though Forza Motorsport started the franchise, the most popular Forza series today is Playground Games' spinoff Horizon. And since Forza Horizon 5 was released almost two years ago, it has become incredibly popular - and it's still growing at a fast pace.

Back in May, we revealed that Forza Horizon 5 had reached over 30 million users, and it turns out it has grown quite a lot since then. As noticed by Snap Blast Play on X, the player base has increased by almost a million players each month, and today over 34 million gamers have enjoyed the open world racing title, which we awarded with a very high grade in our review (and we also really liked the latest expansion Rally Adventure which launched earlier this year).

Do you prefer Motorsport or Horizon in the Forza franchise - and have you played Forza Horizon 5 yet?
